Dubrovnik has a rich and complex history that has left a deep imprint on its architecture, culture, and people. From its days as a proud and grand walled city to the hardships of the tragic earthquake of 1667 and the Homeland war in 1991, Dubrovnik has a lot of stories to tell. During the tour, we will engage you with first-hand accounts and stories that will give you a true sense of the city’s remarkable existence.

The Pharmacy at the Franciscan Monastery is one of the real highlights of our walking tour. Founded in 1317, the pharmacy is one of the oldest still in operation today. Inside is a fascinating collection of decorated jars filled with ancient remedies, unique measurement devices, together with alembics and mortars, all displayed in much the same way as it was centuries ago. The Monastery also houses a museum with outstanding displays of sacral artifacts.

Knežev Dvor, or the Rector’s Palace, is the most important building in the public life of the Dubrovnik Republic. It was the house of Rector, the office of the government, the civic prison, and a lively public square all at the same time. Today it is a city museum, recreating the room functions and holding many original works. Listening to a starlit classical concert in the open atrium of the Rector’s Palace during the celebrated Dubrovnik Summer Festival is an unforgettable Dubrovnik experience.
